We go about our daily lives, clean the house, take care of the garden, and assume everything is fine. And most of the time, it is. The trouble with pests is that they're incredibly good at staying out of sight. They don't move in and make a big announcement. They quietly find a warm place to hide, a source of food, and before you know it, they've made themselves at home. That's why so many homeowners are caught off guard. One day everything seems normal. Then suddenly you're finding droppings in the pantry, hearing noises in the ceiling, or discovering damage you can't explain. The scary part? Those signs usually don't appear right away.
